I would be very interested in a note from the Minister of State on this subject, but my understanding is that there is a facility whereby a local authority can take over a dwelling where the owner cannot be identified. I have asked that a particular dwelling be taken over because we cannot find the owner of it. From a conversation I had with Deputy Emmet Stagg on a previous occasion, I understand that the library on Main Street, Maynooth, was acquired that way because they could not find the owner. Deputy Murphy might know about that.
